Showcase: Platform for artists

Description

Zebrastraat offers up-and-coming artists a platform to introduce themselves to the general public. Visual artists present their work under the name Showcase#art, whereas musicians showcase their talent in Showcase#music.

With the initiative Showcase#art, Zebrastraat gives visual artists who are not bound to a gallery (yet) the chance to show their work to a wide audience. An experienced jury makes a selection from the portfolios several times a year. Every year, 10 artists are chosen. They showcase their work at the XYZ Lounge in Zebrastraat for one month. 

These artists will be featured:

Showcase #02 Saskia Weyts
Showcase #03 Natalia Drobot

Every Thursday evening you can enjoy a concert in the Zebra Café. These concerts, organised under the name Showcase#music, offer young and upcoming musical talent a platform.  The artists/bands are selected by a professional jury.  One of them will perform on the main stage of Zebrawoods.

The Ghent University Museum (GUM) and Botanical Garden will take you on a quest for the truth. This exhibition provides an answer to questions such as: What is true and what isn’t? What do we really want to know? Does absolute certainty exist? What is the role of science in this regard? Does a museum always tell the truth? The GUM confronts big names and young talent from the art world with exceptional research from home and abroad and intriguing science projects in which you can participate live. In the Wunderkammer of TRUTH, you (might) learn all about the truth. The exhibition is definitely worth a visit.

Gastvrouw Fien Sabbe verwelkomt schrijversduo Elvis Peeters en spreekt met hen over hun veelzijdig oeuvre en hun manier van werken.    ‘De ommelanden, ‘Wat alleen wij weten’, ‘Kijk dan toch’, ‘Dinsdag’, ... De romans en kinderboeken van het duo Elvis Peeters belanden steevast op de nominatielijsten van belangrijke literaire prijzen en zijn vertaald in diverse talen. De roman ‘Wij’ werd verfilmd, de boeken rond ‘Meneer Papier’ werden een animatiereeks voor jonge kinderen. Maar hoe doen ze dat met hun tweetjes? Wat maakt hun laatste roman ‘De tijden’ tot een indringend actueel boek? Is de roman ‘De ontelbaren’ echt profetisch? Waar kom het pseudoniem Elvis Peeters vandaan of hoe ontstaan hun romans? Het duo Elvis Peeters leest voor en geeft antwoord. Redenen genoeg voor een ontmoeting in de bib van Destelbergen.    Elvis Peeters is het pseudoniem van Nicole Van Bael en Jos Verlooy. Al jaren schrijven ze samen geëngageerde romans die op indringende wijze een contemporain of moreel thema aan de kaak stellen. 
Artists such as Luigi Brunetti, Johann Fischer, Jean Leclercq, Michael Golz, Daniel Johnston, Jean-Jacques Liabeuf and Norbert Moutier flout conventions and freely interpret the popular genre of comic strips in their own way. Existing heroes appear in new fantasy worlds and new protagonists come to life. This exhibition highlights work that has often been created outside the established art circuits. You can find it in renowned museums such as Collection de l’Art Brut in Lausanne, national and international art studios and private collections. Word and image are brought together in an unconventional way. You can immerse yourself in a ‘different world of comic strips’.
NO NAME COLLECTIVE en GRUUT presenteren met gePaaste trots: GRUUT LAWIJT III! Een hoogdag ter ere van de herrijzenis van de Belgische underground, op een unieke locatie waar water wonderlijk in artisanaal bier verandert. Op het programma: knallende SHOWS, een METAL MARKET en een fris BIERPALET! DE BANDS: Drawing inspiration from the tones and rhythms of Flamenco Puro, this Ghentish three piece weaves intricate time-signatures with dizzying chord shapes to produce a unique and avant-garde sound best described as Sun-Kissed Black Metal. https://giftsofblankets.bandcamp.com/album/a-la-mina-no-voy-m-s Combining a filthy sound with a sinister atmosphere, this trio from Ghent will charm fans of black, death and doom metal alike. Prepare for a trip back to the late eighties and early nineties of black metal! Featuring members of last year's headliner Kosmokrator. https://serpentmass.bandcamp.com/ In April 2019, ABRAHAMIC LIARS started as a trio : Niels (San Diablo, Black Swarm), Jolle (Suhrim, Marginal) and Jos (Objector, Furia), having the idea of releasing a black metal record as a project. They started writing instrumental tracks so they’d have songs ready once we had a vocalist. For live purposes they became a sextet joined by Beuk (Carnal Desecration, Works of the flesh), Cin (Seethr, Stercore) and Tim (Izah, Works of the flesh). https://abrahamicliars.bandcamp.com/ Bones arose from the wastelands of Belgium in 2011, united by a common passion for real-sounding death metal: performed with authenticity and devotion, infused with the sorceries of the ancients. https://exposedbones.bandcamp.com/ DE ORGANISATOREN: GRuut werd opgericht in 2009 door Annick, een gepassioneerde vrouw afkomstig uit een heuse brouwersdynastie. Wat Gruut uniek maakt, is het brouwen met een middeleeuwse kruidenmix in plaats van hop. Een wondermiddel tegen katers, dankzij onderzoek in samenwerking met de Universiteit Gent! Alsof dat nog niet genoeg is, gaat Gruut er ook prat op hun steentje bij te dragen aan gelijkheid en duurzaamheid. Proef hun vijf unieke bieren met overmate! https://www.gruut.be/en/ Ondergrond ondersteunt Belgisch talent door hun muziek en merch aan te prijzen op evenementen zoals Gruut Lawijt. Daarnaast bieden ze ook workshops aan in thema's waar een beginnende band baat bij heeft, houden ze interviews en podcasts... Een vruchtbare ondergrond voor muziek die vooral ondergronds leeft, zeg maar. https://www.ondergrondvzw.be Sinds 2017 biedt No Name Collective een platform aan zowel jonge lokale acts als door de wol geverfde internationale topbands om in het Gentse toegankelijke shows op sfeervolle locaties op te zetten. Met een tiental partnervenues en zo'n 250 bands op de teller zijn we intussen niet meer uit het Vlaamse undergroundlandschap weg te denken. LINE-UP (kan nog wijzigen): 16.00u: Doors 17.00u: Gifts Of Blankets 18.30u: Serpent Mass 20.00u: Abrahamic Liars 21.30u: Bones
